I can’t get Zakarum remnant rep points in use of the opals buff except realm walkers and seething realms from it.
I only get few points once right after use the opals on other contents, normal world maps, the pit, Helltides, the horde, etc.
Many people are reporting same thing.
Please fix it immediately.
i think i found out how this stupid sh*t works. i never had any mobs give those +x Zakkarum Remnant Points.
But i was bored and started to farm mobs in the area where the rift walkers spawn. there is that green symbol in that big area.
roughly 50% of the mobs in that area gave me +1, +3 or +24 points.
It has an internal cooldown. You get +1 rep on a kill every like two seconds. The ashes buff decreases the cooldown by 20%. So like 1.7 seconds. (I’m guessing on the time of the cooldown, but in my experience it seems like about 2 seconds)
The only fast way to farm the rep is to:
Always
Be
Culling
Speed level hack too… just kill it all, forget that horse and running through things to where you’re trying to be. Waypoint closer and kill everything on the way. Like your Arthas and Sanctuary is Stratholme. Leave no survivors.
Yeah got the same problem here.
Tested it before coming here. I was at 728 rep, used an opal, jumped into a nightmare dungeon and then when I completed it, I found I was at 812 rep. A total gain of 84 rep from hundreds of kills.
Continued playing and did some of the Undercity quests with hundreds of kills in there with an opal active and I got the bonus exp, but barely any rep.
Just checked my rep and it is at 908 now. Bugger all gains.
This is annoying and explains why I am only at tier 6 of the rep grind.
So basically the opals only work on the Realmwalker and mobs around it?
Well that’s a royal pain.
Bugged. For me Helltides and Pits give 0 rep. Only NDs give me large amount of rep. Also, sometimes Opals buffs have tendencies to disappear shortly after activation, and I have to use another one.
No i tested it yesterday. Very rarely the opal are working as intended. I went to a zone where hatred was rising. There i could kill any type of mob and at a certain time, i got rep from every mob multiple times. I killed one mob and he got me like +1 and another +1 rep, i even got the materials from the opal effect. After the area expired(i went to the zone with like 10min left), i went to the next Zone with the same opal active and it didnt get me the same amount of rep like the last area i went in. I got nothing and i wasnt even near the realmwalker in both zones.
Discovered a very weird bug related to that. Usually the opals don’t give any rep at all for the most part but the buff remains active. Though on my spiritborn it seems that the opal buff disappears after it awards rep 1 time when fighting stuff on the bridge near Gea Kul. It may be any of those mobs that makes it disappear early.
Though I get super low rep in general. Paragon 109 with the opals always active and only rank 4 cause they just don’t give rep most the time.
I’m experiencing the same thing. I only see a little bit of reputation come after the first kill and then I don’t see another bit of rep for quite a while despite having the opal buff active. I hope Blizzard is aware of this.
it seems they are not or they just dont care about it. Guys, its the season themed item, this is really important because the season resolves around these opals. They should have fixed that day one because there were reports day one
outside of the seasonal content, seems activity completions are giving the rep rather than kills. still very slow, coming up on 10. But this is gonna end up being the last thing on the journey to 100% it at this rate.
Hoping another post here gets Blizzard’s attention. I am barely getting any Zakarum rep, event when the pop-up says I am. For instance, I cleared 3 strongholds and each time says I got a couple hundred rep, but when I checked at the Zakarum vendor, it showed no increase.
I do seem to get some rep when fighting realmwalkers or inside the realmwalker portal. I think i have also seen my first kill after using an opal give rep too, but I am not sure.
Blizzard, please fix this!
do you know how many posts exist that saying these things are bugged? lol Blizz doing stability fixes is more important than fixing ingame stuff in their eyes
